A Resource About Endometriosis


------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     When the strange pains in your abdomen have been diagnosed as
"Endometriosis," you may wish for more information about this puzzling and
distressing disease that affects women during their reproductive years.
Because the endometrial tissue, which normally forms only inside of the
uterus, can be positioned in so many other locations within the body, the
symptoms can be most variable in nature and severity.  Understanding the
nature, causes and treatments of endometriosis can be of extreme value in
coping with its affects.  Obtaining the comprehensive and instructional
information booklet "Endometriosis" from the Endometriosis Association can be
the first step in gaining the knowledge you need.  It provides basic
information about the disease and its treatments, and how the association can
be a source of help and assistance.  The brochure is available in English,
Spanish, French, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese and German and can be obtained by
sending a stamped self-addressed business sized envelope to the Endometriosis
Foundation, International Headquarters, 8585 N. 76th Place, Milwaukee, WI
53223.  Please specify which language you prefer.
